 Realistic, pragmatic, easy to read September 23, 2006
9 out of 10 found this review helpful
I strongly recommend this book to any conscientious owner of a fearful dog. Our puppy showed fear of many things at an early age and we are lucky to have gotten a trainer - and read this book - as soon as we discovered this problem. The author points out that dealing with a dog's fear is a LOT of work and that the problems don't go away overnight. She is very realistic in explaining the challenges and setting your expectations. The tools she offers are practical and she writes in plain, everyday English that a regular dog owner can understand. Diligently following her advice has made a huge difference for our dog.

"The Cautious Canine" presents a clear, step-by-step method for changing the behavior of a dog who is afraid of strange people and/or other strange dogs. It is not as clear on how to change the behavior of a dog who is cautious and anxious about everything new that he encounters.

This book is clear cut - straight to the point, and extremely helpful. Anyone needing some advice on how to handle their dog's behavior would find this book worthwhile. It's shorter than I thought, but that's ok - no fluff.

Great resource for anxious dog owners July 24, 2006

This is a great step-by-step book for people with anxious dogs. Words of wisdom for anyone who owns a dog with a behavior problem--everyone in the family has to get with the program. While this doesn't take hours a day; it does take time and it does take spending time consistently wtih your dog in order to rehabilitate him/her.
You may still need help from a professional, but this book is a good start and will clue you in if you need to get more help.
